I have apache running a redhat machine. DHCP is used to get a IP address for the machine.
There's no problem using either "localhost" or dhcp assigned IP address to access some pages on the machine.
But when I tried LYNX dhcp address of the machine from other machines, it failed by showing this:
BEGIN--->
Looking up #.#.#.# first
Looking up #.#.#.#
Making HTTP connection to #.#.#.#
Alert!: Unable to connect to remote host.
lynx: Can't access startfile
http://#.#.#.#/
<---END
"#.#.#.#" is dhcp address obtained for the machine.
I tried ssh account@#.#.#.#, it prompts to ask password things. So, I think ssh should work. Also, in httpd.conf, there's a line "Listen *:80".
And there's no problem with browsing internet from mazilla.
What's going wrong? Maybe some low level network settings? To find out the problem, I also tried to allow "ALL:ALL" in hosts.allow and deny nothing in hosts.deny.
Thanks.
